Notification of Travel

Teams traveling outside of Georgia must notify Georgia Soccer of their travel plans.  This is done electronically through the US Soccer Connect system.  

To file Notification of Travel, you must be on the team's roster as a team manager, assistant coach or head coach. Your affiliate registrar should have assigned you to the team and provided you with a username and password.

1. Log in to the site at the affiliate URL provided by your affiliate registrar, or at gs.affinitysoccer.com (no www).
2. Once logged in, you will be on a My Account page that shows all of your family/player information. The Family Members section lists you and any other people who have profiles in your family group. 
3. Click on your portrait (if it’s not already highlighted) and then click on the Teams tab in the section below that. You will see a list of all teams with which you are associated. In the View column to the right, click on the Team Info link for the team that will be traveling. 
4. Next you will see the team’s roster page.  From the row of tabs under the team’s name at the upper left, click Travel Roster then click Create New Request at the lower right.
5. Complete the next page with information regarding the tournament to which you are traveling.  When finished, click Save and Continue.
6. The next page shows your team’s roster. Click on the red X to the right to deselect players or administrators who will not be attending this event. Please note that pool-rostered teams, such as Academy teams, can list a maximum of 24 players per permit, and that the system will list the first 24 on the roster unless players are deselected.
7. To add a guest player or a guest administrator who is properly registered with a Georgia Soccer youth affiliate, select Add Player/Admin Inside Org.
8. You must select the role of the individual you are adding and you must have the ID number of that player/admin from the US Soccer Connect  registration system. The ID number contains 10-11 characters, with a – after the first five numbers, and must be entered exactly.
9. After the player is added, the system will revert back to the roster page and this player will show on the roster as a borrowed player. When you have added any and all guest players, click Save and Continue at the bottom of the page.
10. Next, click the ELA tab.  Read the Electronic Legal Agreements, type your initials in the box to the left of each, and click I Agree.  You'll be brought to the final page (Review and Submit tab).
11. Review the application, using the Edit links to make any changes. Once you are satisfied, click Submit Application near the top of the page, which brings up the payment page.
12. Select your payment method, click Continue, complete card information, click Continue, review and click Submit Payment. Once the page shows your travel notification as Submitted or Accepted, you can print your approved paperwork by clicking on the Print Acceptance Form button near the top of the Review page.
13. The file that opens will show the title of "receipt.pdf.” This file contains your approved paperwork needed for check-in at any out-of-state sanctioned tournament that you attend. You may reprint the paperwork as needed by accessing the travel request as described above, clicking on the Edit Application button, the Review subhead, then the Print Acceptance Form button.

If at any point during this process you have questions or problems, please contact  Kim Bowen.
